Yes I am back to trying to get my 1962 running and drivable now that some good usable tires came to me.
Again this is a 1962, I think it has a 1971 drive train, and who knows what year this carb is from, hope people here can tell me. It had a tag when I bought it, I did rebuild the carb with a kit based on that tag, but that was a long time ago now and the tag is gone.
It starts with the choke out, it idles a little rough and if I push the choke 100% in it dies. Give it a little gas and it sounds real good, so it is just idle seems to be the issue. I installed the actual gas tank, filled it with fresh ethanol free gas. Fuel level in the carb window is a little in the high side. I have a fuel filter before the pump and another before the carb. So when I open it up to adjust the float wanted to make sure everything else was handled and correct. I assume it only has on adjustment screw/needle valve. Is this fast, idle or both and what is a good way to set it to start. Screw in and how many turns back out. (1) in the photos. I do not have the money to send it out, so it is me or no one.
And are these correct, mainly 3. I see no where else to connect it.
And (2) in the photo goes to the PCV valve.
and (3) in the photo, red line goes to the distributor.
If you see anything else in the pics that looks off let me know. I have the choke cable attached but not the throttle cable yet.
I am getting an error uploading the photos, will try again
